List of W cover models

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

W is a women's beauty magazine published by Condé Nast Publications. A famous person, usually an actress, singer, or model, is featured on the cover of each month's issue. Following are the names of each cover subject from the most recent issue to the first issue of W under editorship of Patrick McCarthy in August 1993. Sara Moonves is the current editor in chief of W, having been promoted in 2019.[1] Since 2013, the magazine will combine the January/December and June/July issues so as to free up money to invest in the magazine's digital brand.[2]
